[Please replace this line with your information.]
When I did a tar -xvf /mit/bitbucket/consult.tar,
I got a whole slew of "can't create" and "permission denied" errors. This
happend with tar files created with:
tar -cvf /mit/bitbucket/consult.tar .
and
tar -cvof /mit/bitbucket/consult.tar .
When I did:
tar -xvf ....
on an RT on the tar -cvof file, it worked fine.
